Which side of the plane to sit from Trabzon International Airport (Trabzon) to Adana Airport (Adana)?

Gülek Pass

The historic gateway through the Taurus Mountains visible during the final stages of the cruise.

The right side is essential for seeing Mount Erciyes. For sunset flights, this side offers dramatic golden-hour views over the Central Anatolian plateau. Keep your camera ready during the final 15 minutes for the intricate patterns of the Çukurova fields.
